[PATCH net-next 1/2] net: geneve: Leverage core stats allocator

[Breno Leitao]

With commit 34d21de99cea9 ("net: Move {l,t,d}stats allocation to core and
convert veth & vrf"), stats allocation could be done on net core
instead of in this driver.

With this new approach, the driver doesn't have to bother with error
handling (allocation failure checking, making sure free happens in the
right spot, etc). This is core responsibility now.

Remove the allocation in the geneve driver and leverage the network
core allocation instead.

[PATCH net-next 2/2] net: geneve: Remove generic .ndo_get_stats64

[Breno Leitao]

Commit 3e2f544dd8a33 ("net: get stats64 if device if driver is
configured") moved the callback to dev_get_tstats64() to net core, so,
unless the driver is doing some custom stats collection, it does not
need to set .ndo_get_stats64.

Since this driver is now relying in NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_TSTATS, then, it
doesn't need to set the dev_get_tstats64() generic .ndo_get_stats64
function pointer.
